title: [Haemonetics MCS-3 pump system: improved production quality in thrombocytapheresis with a discontinuous cell separator].
abstract: With the new cell separator MCS-3P (Haemonetics) platelet concentrates were collected in 90 min with an average yield of 3 x 10(11) platelets in 280 ml (53 donations). The most important advantage is the reduced residual leukocyte contamination of approximately 2.4 x 10(6).
